Monday November 21st

Rob Orlando, so hot right now...

Test Trials
Max distance Broad Jump - 99, 101, 100"
Max Height Vertical- 23", 25", 25"

I settled right around my max outputs on both of these quickly. My previous max vert was 23" so it was cool to see myself tack a little bit onto that, and my broad jump has always been right around 100.. haven't added much to that, oh well..

SWOD- Thrusters 1-1-1-1-1-1

Single heavy thrusters, love it. I have not done these for max weight in a long while so this was going to be a fun test. I believe my last max out was 185 so I was hoping to beat that if the day progressed well..
I started out with some reps at 95 and 135 to get loose then got into the singles, working my way up slowly.
I managed to easily hoist up 155,165,175 without issue.
My last 3 reps were definitely right around my limit and I was able to get 185,195, and then I went for broke and tried 200. 
The 200 rep was a little ugly, I lost all my speed getting out of the hole and basically pressed out the 200 once it was over my forehead, but it still would have counted I think.
Nice PR on that, felt strong today, will def be sore tomorrow. These smoke my core.


After classes I was dicking around and thought I would do some more tabata double unders as they have been a fun practice for me recently to get my numbers up there. 
Low and behold, before I even turned on the clock I just decided to practice a couple sets first and I repped out 89 Double Unders, 20 over my previous PR.. BOOM..
No one was around to watch but I was uber-excited, as my 69 DUs had stood for like 4 months and I hadn't come close to hitting it in forever. Tabata DU cash out is here to stay, it is definitely helping me on these.
